Judge to Decide If It’s Rehab or Jail For Lindsay Lohan

If swirling reports prove to be right on the money, Lindsay Lohan will remain in rehab until her court appearance later this month. But for how long she stays in rehab after that will probably be determined by the judge.

According to the sources, the plan is for Lindsay to stay at the Betty Ford Rehab Clinic at least until her next court appearance before Judge Elden Fox October 22.

Judge Fox will then have documents from the doctors at Betty Ford to evaluate Lindsay’s problems and progress to determine how much longer she stays in rehab or if jail will better serve the purpose of straightening her up.

Naturally, Lindsay and her family would like the judge to determine and rule that Lindsay would be better off in rehab than in jail. If that’s the case then her rehab stint will certainly be extended.

If I were Judge Fox, I would order Lindsay off of those prescription pills until she gets her supposed medical condition re-evaluated. It seems prescription pills have become the “acceptable” way for drug dependents to get their fix, and it has resulted to a lot of celebrity deaths as well.
